Subject: ARM: dts: am33xx: Add an empty chosen node to top level DTSI

From: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@osg.samsung.com>

commit 1d8d6d3f2f7d553c479f24ab93767974a8c2dfad upstream.

Commit f8bf01611c99 ("ARM: dts: am33xx: Remove skeleton.dtsi usage")
removed the skeleton.dtsi usage since we want to get rid of it.

But this can cause issues when booting a kernel with a boot-loader
that doesn't create a chosen node if this isn't present in the DTB
since the decompressor relies on a pre-existing chosen node to be
available to insert the command line and merge other ATAGS info.
